Comments, questions and tips

love this recipe!!!! I've given it to my children's teachers as xmas gifts & I shaped it into a cat (doubled the recipe & used round tins) for my son's 1st birthday, everyone comments on how yummy it is. I use lidl bellarom 45% chocolate & I find mars bars work best

Oh yes! Great recipe and can be adapted to whatever you fancy adding. Today I changed the golden syrup for maple syrup and added some chopped walnuts. As long as you keep the proportions roughly the same it works every time.

I have made this recipe so many times I've lost count! Always a huge hit with family and work colleagues. I give it as gifts for Christmas wrapped in cellophane and always use 70% good quality dark chocolate, digestive biscuits and crunchie bars, absolutely delicious!

I have no idea where I went wrong but these just didn't bind for me - it's as though it was mainly biscuits and hardly any chocolate to stick it together. I followed the recipe exactly. If anyone has some tips let me know! Maybe I should use less biscuits next time. It still tasted really nice though - just fell apart.

Such a good recipe! Delicious and easy. I find malteasers work best out of all the other options and Cadbury's milk chocolate tastes a lot better than dark chocolate when making these.

These always go down SO well with anyone I make them for. They're so quick to make aswell! Instead of all the ingredients listed above, I use: just under 100g morello cherries (quartered), and just under 100g marshmallows (cut into small pieces). The cherries add that chewy and sweet element and the marshmallow melts, creating a lovely marbled effect and they taste so moreish! It's just a shame that the ingredients don't stretch to a larger portion as I don't think you could produce this too cheaply- buying the right chocolate DOES matter. I tried it once with supermarket's own 30p per bar plain chocolate and it just didn't work.

Amazing! Sweet and yummy! I tried with crunchie bars. I cut into to smaller squares so they weren't so rich and got lots more than 12 out of the batch. will def make again as so easy and quick.

I've made this loads of times, a real crowd (and husband) pleaser! I also use a mix of plain and milk chocolate which works very well.

This is a great recipe! I used a combination of dark and milk chocolate so that it wasn't too bitter and a mars bar gave it tiny hints of gooeyness. I sprinkled them with icing sugar and gave out as sweet nibbles- they were a real hit!
